| H A D | sbsa-ref.c | 90ea2cce Thu May 05 06:39:47 CDT 2022 Leif Lindholm <quic_llindhol@quicinc.com> hw/arm: add versioning to sbsa-ref machine DT
The sbsa-ref machine is continuously evolving. Some of the changes we
want to make in the near future, to align with real components (e.g.
the GIC-700), will break compatibility for existing firmware.
Introduce two new properties to the DT generated on machine generation:
- machine-version-major
To be incremented when a platform change makes the machine
incompatible with existing firmware.
- machine-version-minor
To be incremented when functionality is added to the machine
without causing incompatibility with existing firmware.
to be reset to 0 when machine-version-major is incremented.
This versioning scheme is *neither*:
- A QEMU versioned machine type; a given version of QEMU will emulate
a given version of the platform.
- A reflection of level of SBSA (now SystemReady SR) support provided.
The version will increment on guest-visible functional changes only,
akin to a revision ID register found on a physical platform.
These properties are both introduced with the value 0.
(Hence, a machine where the DT is lacking these nodes is equivalent
to version 0.0.)
